These digital releases will come two days before Chuck Schuldiner would have celebrated his 43rd birthday. Schuldiner passed away on December 13, 2001 after fighting a long, recurring battle with brain cancer. Relapse will also reissue an expanded version of the classic debut album, 'The Fragile Art Of Existence' from Schuldiner's progressive heavy metal band CONTROL DENIED in late 2010 as well as the first-ever collection by his pre-DEATH project MANTAS. The expanded version of 'The Fragile Art of Existence' will include bonus tracks, extra band photography, expanded art and packaging and more. Details on both releases are forthcoming. Long-range plans include the completion and official release of the final CONTROL DENIED album 'When Man and Machine Collide' Recorded over 10 years ago at Morrisound Studios with producer Jim Morris, 'When Man and Machine Collide' was tracked by Schuldiner but left incomplete upon Chuck's passing.
